Book Reviews of Clothing & Accessories from the '40s, '50s, & '60s: A Handbook and Price Guide
Book Review: poorly done
Summary: 2 Stars
I agree with the other reviewer...this book is not very well done. Misspellings are abundant, leading me to believe the author is either not very knowledgeable, or just doesn't care. Some items were obviously not well researched. Clothing is photographed laid haphazardly on a flat surface, and the details are not very visible. The overall quality of the photography is very poor. I had the feeling that the book was just thrown together in a very short period of time with items on hand. Though there are some nice things pictured, that I would have liked to know more about, the book doesn't do them justice & the lack of content left me feeling unsatisfied. There are much better books about vintage clothing out there! I would suggest finding one.
Summary of Clothing & Accessories from the '40s, '50s, & '60s: A Handbook and Price Guide
The world of vintage clothing is a fun, exciting, rewarding area of collecting. This is particularly true of the fashions of 1940s, 50s, and 60s. Unlike earlier eras, these creations can be worn and enjoyed everyday. And there is something for every taste...from the formal to the whimsical and from the chic tailored suits of the 1940s to the free-style fashions of the late-1960s.Fashion Design Books
